Description

断路器的触头模块Contact module of circuit breaker 技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及断路器领域,更具体地说,涉及一种具有非对称结构的断路器的触头模块。This invention relates to the field of circuit breakers and, more particularly, to a contact module for a circuit breaker having an asymmetrical structure.
背景技术Background technique
众所周知双断点塑壳断路器的分断性能远优于单断点塑壳断路器,这其中的原因之一就是双断点塑壳断路器都是采取模块化结构,这种结构不仅装配方便而且绝缘性能很好,但是由于这种结构,使得断路器的每一级都要增加两个触头模块,又因为此类断路器需要承受很大的分断电流,即很强的气体冲击,所以触头模块还是要有很高的强度要求,这一点就要求断路器的触头模块需要有一定厚度,这就使得整个断路器很难缩小相间距,尤其是小壳架的产品,如100A、125A、160A,最终导致断路器变得很宽,而断路器的小型化一直是断路器的发展方向之一,于是,断路器的分断电流的承载力和断路器的尺寸之间成为了一对矛盾。It is well known that the double-breakpoint molded case circuit breaker has much better breaking performance than the single-breakpoint molded case circuit breaker. One of the reasons is that the double-breakpoint molded case circuit breaker adopts a modular structure, which is not only easy to assemble but also The insulation performance is very good, but due to this structure, two contact modules are added to each stage of the circuit breaker, and because such circuit breakers need to withstand a large breaking current, that is, a strong gas shock, so touch The head module still needs to have high strength requirements, which requires the contact module of the circuit breaker to have a certain thickness, which makes it difficult to reduce the phase spacing of the entire circuit breaker, especially for small frame products, such as 100A, 125A. The 160A eventually causes the circuit breaker to become very wide, and the miniaturization of the circuit breaker has always been one of the development directions of the circuit breaker. Therefore, the breaking force of the breaking current of the circuit breaker and the size of the circuit breaker become a contradiction. .
例如目前市面上的160A的产品,一般四级的断路器宽度要达到120mm,相间距为30mm,虽然能够承载较大电流,但是断路器尺寸过大,使得应用领域和安装受到很大限制。For example, the current 160A products on the market generally have a circuit breaker width of 120mm and a phase spacing of 30mm. Although it can carry a large current, the size of the circuit breaker is too large, which limits the application field and installation.

The size of the contact module is reduced while maintaining the breaking current carrying capacity.
